Got plans for the first weekend in October? Even if you do, try to carve out either Friday or Saturday evening to kick your Halloween season off on a spooky note. If you don’t, you’ll miss out on one of the most delightfully frightening events this season. What’s more, you’ll have to wait an entire year to climb aboard this haunted river float in Missouri that features so much more than terror on the water.
Get ready for the ghost and goblins to come out, after darkness has taken over the sun at Ruby's Landing River Resort on October 4-5, 2019.
That's the last chance you'll have to climb aboard the wildly popular haunted river float that will take you on a terrifying, half-mile ride down the Gasconade River.
With you on that ride will be seven other guests, all setting off for a frightening adventure on the water.

At the end of that half-mile, which will feature plenty of frights along the way, you'll arrive on land. There, you'll enter a haunted house, escape a corn maze, and...
Well, you don't have to! Although most cabins and RV sites are booked for the first weekend in October, you might be able to snag a spot or do a little primitive camping.
Tickets for the Haunted River Float cost $32 per person. Your ticket entitles you to a hayride, the haunted float, entrance to the corn maze and the haunted house, and a night of primitive camping.
However, if you want to battle the zombies on the hayride, you'll have to buy paint balls. One hundred paint balls cost $15, or you can buy 200 for $20.
